Cycle 1200 miles
Run 800 miles
Choose walking instead of the bus for short trips
Use the gym at UT that I'm already paying fees for (specifically, the pool)
Life goals:
Graduate! (Okay, this is an easy one, since it would be really hard to screw up at this point.)
Read 100 books.
Finish my NaNoWriMo novel and do at least some editing so I can get my CreateSpace free books this year.
Meet at least one person at church every Sunday. I tried this a couple of years ago and it worked out well; I imagine it will work even better since we're still the new people at our current church.
Finish my Have Bus, Will Travel project.
And for goodness' sake, remember to take my vitamins and wear compression socks.
I think that's all for now. But I do make new goals fairly regularly-- at least every couple of months-- so these are sure to evolve as the year goes by.
Did you make any resolutions? Are you anti-resolutions? Do you think bloggers who share their resolutions are a bit crazy?

I make resolutions, but usually they're far too lofty and I fail quickly... this year I'm trying to make a plan on how to accomplish the things I want to, so at least I'll be able to make a decent attempt.
One of these things is getting back to my blog... :)
...but it makes sense to share your resolutions with others, all told. How else can you be held accountable/be encouraged for the things you plan to do? Plus, writing them publicly makes them more "real"... everyone knows about them, so you'd better make a good effort!
Happy New Year!
I tend to make more goals than resolutions. Good luck with yours!
Good luck with your resolutions, and good luck with mine too, I hope we both achieve them. :0)
No resolutions here...I never keep them anyway.
Wow! Those are great goals! Good luck! I have a few goals for this year, but I'm weirdly superstitious about actually telling people about them, so zzzzzip.
I do make writing goals but for me making them public or keeping them private doesn't affect my success. Good luck with yours.
I don't think it's crazy. Mostly because I just did that myself. But also because if I'm accountable to all my bloggy friends, then I can't slack off.
Happy New Year.
I rarely make resolutions cos I really don't have the necessary discipline to stick to them :)
Good luck with yours.
@Faith: I've found that I do better the years that I have a plan than the years that I don't.
@Cheri: I think I use those two words interchangeably. Which apparently is not normal. ?? Best of luck to you as well!
@Delores: Don't you have one about enjoying the scenery? That sounds like a good one to me!
@Colene: Hmm. Maybe I'll try that if the "announce publicly" route doesn't work out for me.
@Susan: I'm not sure it does for me, either.
@JE: And crazy loves company, yes?
@Myne: Thanks! And happy new year to you, too!
